OPERATION
1. Place the motor base of your Cuisinart
®
SmartPower Duet
®
Deluxe 600-Watt Blender/Food Processor on a flat, sturdy
surface. It is important that the surface be clean and dry.
Assemble the blender by following the Assembly instructions.
Once the jar is assembled and is in position on the motor base,
plug the unit into an electrical outlet.
2. Put all necessary ingredients into the blender jar and replace the
cover. You may add more ingredients by lifting the measured
pour lid and dropping ingredients through the fill area. Replace
the measured pour lid after adding ingredients. Do not put
hands into blender jar with blender plugged in.
Note: For best blending results, add liquid ingredients first, then
follow with solid ingredients. This will provide more consistent
blending and prevent unnecessary stress on the motor.
Note: To remove blender jar cover, lift edge of cover upward.
Lifting measured pour lid will not remove cover.
3. Start blending: Press the
On/Off button. The red LED
indicator light will illuminate and
flash, indicating that the blender
is turned on but no speed has
been selected.
4. Choose blending speed: Press High or Low button to
determine the speed at which you would like to blend the
ingredients. Both the On indicator light and the activated speed
indicator lights will glow. The blender will now be functioning
at the desired speed. It is possible to switch speeds without
pressing the On/Off button simply by selecting another speed.
WARNING: FLASHING RED LIGHT INDICATES READY TO
OPERATE. DO NOT TOUCH BLADES.
5. To reset the unit: This appliance features an advanced resettable
thermal fuse. In the event of an overload condition, the unit will shut
down to protect the motor from overheating. To reset the appliance
when this happens, unplug the unit and let it cool for a minimum
of 15 minutes. Then, reduce the contents of the blender jar or
work bowl and/or clear any jams. Restart the unit as noted in the
operating directions.
6. To pause or stop blending process:
a. To pause blending process:
Push the button corresponding to the speed at which you are
currently blending. For example: If you are blending on High
speed, push the High speed button and the blender will stop
blending but the unit will remain on.
b. To stop blending process:
Push the On/Off button when you are finished with your
recipe and would like to turn the blender off.
c. To prevent excessive stress to the motor:
Your blender incorporates an auto-stop feature. After running
continuously for two minutes, the blender will automatically
revert to Standby mode. To continue blending, press the
desired function.
7. Pulse mode: The Pulse mode allows you to create a burst of
power for quick, efficient blending. To use the Pulse function,
push the On/Off button and the red LED indicator light will
illuminate and flash. Push the Pulse button and the Pulse LED
indicator light will flash. Push and release the desired speed
button. Repeat as needed. You determine the duration of each
pulse. While pulsing, the LED indicator light will illuminate. The
Pulse function can be used to break apart larger pieces of food
or to control the texture of food when chopping. The Pulse
function is also effective in starting the blending process when
you do not want continuous power, or when processing items
that do not require an extended amount of blending.
8.
To crush ice: The SmartPower Duet
®
Deluxe 600-Watt Blender/
Food Processor motor is strong enough to crush ice without liquid
at any speed; however, for your convenience, we have preset the
best speed for ice crushing. To crush ice, place ice cubes in the
blender jar. Press the On/Off button. The On indicator light will
illuminate and flash. Press the Ice Crush button until ice is crushed
to desired consistency. Ice Crush can also be used in Pulse mode.
See Quick Reference Guide on page 2 of the recipe booklet for
more details.
9. To dislodge food: Use a rubber or plastic spatula to help
remove food lodged around the cutting assembly. DO NOT USE
SPATULA UNTIL YOU HAVE TURNED THE BLENDER OFF.
Replace the cover and measured pour lid and continue blending,
if necessary. Make sure spatula is not inside the blender jar
before blending.
